The movie today will be Green Grass of Wyoming at 1:00 p.m. It is rated G and runs for 1 hour and 29 minutes. Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be served. The Bucket List will be the movie next week.

The Blaine County Library Board of Trustees will hold their regular monthly meeting Monday January 24th at 4:00 p.m. in the library meeting room.

The next Free People Reading Freely book club will be Monday February 11th at 7:00 p.m. We are continuing to read banned books, but we are branching out beyond the top ten of 2017. Library Staff has put together a list of banned books available for participants to choose from.

We have a couple of non-fiction books ready this week. “The Martha Manual” by Martha Stewart is a handbook of how to do (almost) everything. “Happy Go Money” by Melissa Leong is a guide to help you spend smart, save right and enjoy life.


New fiction this week includes several thrillers. In “An Anonymous Girl” by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields. She thinks all she’ll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave. But as the questions grow more and more intense and invasive and the sessions become outings where Jess is told what to wear and how to act, she begins to feel as though Dr. Shields may know what she’s thinking…and what she’s hiding.

“Daughter of War” by Brad Taylor is a Pike Logan thriller. The shocking death of a young woman leads Detective Dave Robicheaux into the dark corners of Hollywood, the mafia, and the backwoods of Louisiana in “The New Iberia Blues” by James Lee Burke. “Where the Crawdads Sing” by Delia Owens is an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

Story Time is Tuesday mornings at 10:30 a.m. Middle School Hangout is Tuesday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 and is open to kids in grades 6 to 8. Wednesdays we show a movie at 1:00 p.m. and Thursdays is LEGO Club for kids in grades K through 6. The next Middle School Hangout movie will be February 12 starting at 3:30pm.
